Sail in
Antigua

Join us and unwind as we set sail for the stunning heart of the Caribbean, the alluring island of Antigua. For those looking for a taste of the Caribbean, this charming island is the perfect destination for a low key, relaxed vacation. "Liming in Da Caribbean" is very much the motto of the day, every day.

With over 54 miles of expansive coastline, there is something for everyone, whether at sea or on shore. Antigua offers diving enthusiasts the perfect underwater haven to explore its coral reefs and marine life, including the endangered Hawksbill sea turtle. Whilst the seductive, white sandy beaches are perfect for a romantic stroll at dusk.

Just four hours from New York and approximately nine hours from Los Angeles, the magic of Antigua is just a short flight away. This is one TradeWinds experience, you won't want to miss out. Book your perfect escape on one of our luxury Antigua yacht charters.

Picture yourself aboard one of our Luxury Class catamarans as we sail along the coastline of Antigua. The gentle, salty breeze from the waves, dances across your skin as you take your place on the dolphin seat and watch the world go by. Below, the color of the ocean changes from turquoise to sapphire, the simmering splendor of the fish and reefs waiting to be explored. Above, there's not a cloud in sight, only the majestic and graceful native Weather bird soaring into the distance.

Famed as a playground to the rich and famous, and steeped in naval history, you can experience everything Antigua has to offer and more. This Caribbean haven is thought to have 365 beaches, one for every day of the year!

For those wanting to unwind, enjoy a relaxing stroll along one of the many white, sandy beaches, read a book under a swaying palm, or take a leisurely hike to historic Fort Barrington.

If you're looking for thrills, then zip lining through a rainforest is an experience never to be forgotten. For underwater thrill seekers there is an abundance of wrecks and reefs to discover, including the chance to explore the Pillars of Hercules.

Antiguans are friendly and the life and soul of the party, and the familiar sound of steel drums and calypso music will get you up on your feet dancing in no time. Whilst the delicately scented Antigua Black Pineapple - the sweetest pineapple in the world, has to be tasted to be believed.

Discovered in 1493 by Christopher Columbus, the island is known by Antiguans as Wadadli, which is roughly translated as "Our Own". Nestled in the middle of the Leeward Islands, this tropical paradise is approximately 17 degrees north of the equator, making for warm, steady winds and a perfect tropical climate.

Upon arrival, you'll join us at our base in Jolly Harbour Marina, this is where you will meet your crew and where your Antiguan adventure will begin.

Reserve a room with a view on one of our luxury, all-inclusive Antigua yacht charters, and let us show you the magic of Antigua. Your once-in-a-lifetime Caribbean dream vacation starts here.

Sailing Highlight

Antigua is all about sailing, the home of some of the most prestigious regattas in the world. The outlying reefs make for flat and beautifully turquoise water, and the island is exposed to the brisk tradewinds - resulting in some fast and exhilarating sailing, close tacking through the coral heads. Typically we will only run the engines on the catamaran for about three hours each week.

Diving Highlight

Sunken Rock, Antigua - Max Depth: 120ft - Sunken Rock feels like diving in an aquarium. Fish of every size and species engulf you, lobsters, stingrays, morays, burrfish - you name it! Reef ledges, drop wall, swim canyon – this site has it all. For those "in the know" this is considered one of the best in the Caribbean - weather dependent.

Jess & Ty were an awesome crew. Best ones we have had. Feb 24 2018 aboard Dreamer in Antigua.
